{"quotes":[{"text":"One of the most breathtaking concepts in all of Scripture is the revelation that God knows each of us personally and that we are in His mind both day and night. There is simply no way to comprehend the full implications of His love by the King of kings and Lord of lords. He is all-powerful and all-knowing, majestic and holy, from everlasting to everlasting. Why would He care about us—about our needs, our welfare, our fears? We have been discussing situations in which God doesn’t make sense. His concern for us mere mortals is the most inexplicable of all.","author":"James C.

He slipped into the crowd and was found later teaching on a hill somewhere. History tells us that he did nothing wrong, and we sacrificed him anyway. The day my father died, I assured him he was headed for heaven, though I had a hard time believing in something that floated so aimlessly through the minds of children. The concept seemed fair and unfair in such equal amounts that it appeared to cancel itself out. I’d never met someone so deserving of eternal bliss, yet from the time I was a child I was taught we all deserve hell. I wondered if heaven existed at all. But I wanted everlasting life to be real for the man who let me lie on his chest on a hammock in the backyard and taught me not to fear thunder. One of the many things my father taught me not to fear. His breaths were labored and aided by machines. He wore a white hospital gown. I remember thinking, “I can’t believe my father’s going to die in a gown.” “Are you afraid?” I asked.“Not at all,” he strained. “I’m going to be with the Lord.”I wished I shared his confidence. For him, it was a priceless thing no one could take. I wished the fear of death was like the fear of a passing storm cloud—something we outgrow with understanding. For men like my dad, I guess it was.","author":"Christopher Hawke","tags":["death","everlasting","everlasting-life","fear","fear-of-death","heaven","history","jesus","lord","sacrifice"],"id":30143,"author_id":"Christopher+Hawke"},{"text":"What you see with your eyes are transient and ephemeral,What you see through your heart is everlasting and eternal.","author":"Debasish Mridha","tags":["debasish","ephemeral","eternal","everlasting","eyes","heart","life","mridha","philosophy","transient"],"id":59160,"author_id":"Debasish+Mridha"},{"text":"Simple minded people do things like gossip, lie, spread rumors, and cause troubles.
